Hey Tiger Fans!
It’s important to our team to show respect and share our admiration for those dealing with cancer. It’s just as important for us to share our appreciation for our alumnae. The way we do it at Tiger Park is by dedicating games to these individuals.
Our breast cancer awareness game on Friday is significant to us because it gives us an opportunity to recognize those who are directly and indirectly affected by cancer. This game is our chance to play in the honor of people that are struggling with and or overcoming cancer. It’s a special experience that I’m truly blessed to be a part of. Our team really appreciates the fact that we get the opportunity to be a part of something so special.
It’s also very important to us to hold the alumnae reunion because without all of the amazing athletes that played before us, we would not be playing in one of the top stadiums in the country today. The alumnae reunion is a special time for the present players to personally send a message of thanks and praise to those who put in the blood, sweat and tears to make this program what it is today. It’s a time to share stories and memories with each other, old and new. It’s a great time for both the current players, alumnae and especially the fans.
We look forward to seeing you at Tiger Park this weekend.
Geaux Tigers,
Anissa
